By societal standards, as a mother of seven, and a
grandmother of four, I should be slowing down, getting tired and
disengaging more from day-to-day living.
In actuality, I’m doing just the opposite! It just serves as proof that life is an ever evolving miracle that unfolds in ways none of us can predict or imagine.
I pray that my life (what little may be seen through social media snippets and occasional segments on my husband’s show) is a testimony to the fact that God, the divine creator, is able to take us through challenges, twists and turns, yet still enable us to arrive at a place of glorious peace, love, fulfillment and joy! You’re never too old, too short, too skinny, too ‘this’ or too ‘that’ to have an abundant life rich with purpose, pleasure and rewarding relationships. But you have to believe that this kind of life is yours to enjoy. You must seek it. Go after it. Most importantly, give yourself permission to pursue only what will make you truly happy. When those desired people places and things show up, seize them. Enjoy them. Relish them. Don’t send them away in false humility. Embrace them and celebrate their arrival! It’s our way of saying thank you back to God.
Over the years, I’ve learned the most dangerous thing we can ever do is rule out the likelihood of new opportunities, simply because there are challenges, obstacles, or social norms that warrant otherwise. We all face these kinds of battles. While every situation differs for each one of us, the difficulties we face were intended to be our teachers, not our demise. Keep your heart and mind continually open to possibility. No matter how dark your path may get along the way, know there is always light and God’s love on the other side. And be grateful!!! Gratefulness gives way to more blessings. It’s a divine law.
Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, never ever stop living!!!
